Winchelsea Arts concert – Vivaldi and Grieg performed by the Hastings Philharmonic Orchestra

The first concert of Winchelsea Arts’ 10th season will take place on Sunday 6 July at 7pm. The Hastings Philharmonic Orchestra directed by Marcio da Silva with violinist Emil Chakalov, return to Winchelsea to perform two staples of the orchestral repertoire.

Vivaldi’s four famous concerti were composed to represent the different aspect of each season. All were published with accompanying sonnets and are revolutionary since they represent some of the earliest programmatic music.

Grieg’s five movement Holberg Suite is based on 18th century dance forms with which Vivaldi would have been familiar, making it a perfect companion piece.
